Also because people like Mike Lawler, Bruce Blakeman, Peter Oberacker, and Jackie Auringer are happy to give rape a pass if it will help them get or keep the job they want. Vote Cait Conley. Vote Kathy Hochul. Vote Josh Riley. Vote Pat Ryan. They don't condone rape.

Lawler reaffirms his racism and obedience to Trump and Miller. Immigrants, both documented and not, commit WAY fewer crimes than U.S. citizens. And Lawler refuses to stand with the families of children massacred in school shootings or peaceful protesters executed by ICE. VOTE CAIT for no racism.

This is a poignant symbol of what today's Republicans have done and are doing to America. We MUST vote blue in massive numbers. Vote Cait Conley in #NY17 Vote Kathy Hochul for NY governor Vote Josh Riley in #NY19 Vote Pat Ryan in #NY18 Vote blue to stop the destruction & put the people first.

Well, if this is not the best reason to fire Mike Lawler and send Cait Conley to the House in November. "Exactly what we have been doing already" = tariffs & failing Iran Epstein war raising prices on everything, ICE terrorizing Brown ppl & peaceful protesters, degrading women's freedom/equality.

It's beyond absurd to pin high prices on Josh Riley and Kathy Hochul when it's incontrovertible that the policies of Oberacker's puppet master Trump are the true cause of high prices--devastating tariffs, failing Iran Epstein war, tax cuts for billionaires, gutting clean energy measures. VOTE RILEY

1. Cashless bail save taxpayers tens of millions of dollars and does not lead to any meaningful increase in crime. That has been documents over and over and over again. It is not debatable. 2. High utility bills are much more due to the Iran war & other things out of Hochul's control. VOTE HOCHUL.

Now Lawler is just insulting and obnoxious. He lauds himself for standing with Haitian people after standing firmly with the regime that has degraded Haitian people in breathtakingly vile and racist ways, and has out of racist hate ripped away the right of many of them to stay in the country. SHAME!

This is a deceptive move by Blakeman which would not do anything to reduce utility rates or our utility bills. The fracking ban was enacted by the Legislature for solid reasons after long debate. We don't need to go backwards and we certainly don't need a Trump appeaser as Governor.

Here's one of Bruce Blakeman's constituents sharing with us what is like to live under his rule. Blakeman is a fraud, which is no surprise since he's a Trump puppet. Taxes will go up, violence will go up, racism and misogyny will go up. Like Hochul or not, she's not a Trump puppet. REELECT HER!

From saluting the service of his Nazi grandfather (really), to profiting off companies that gouge us as consumers, Oberacker has shown that he just isn't interested in the people, and he just doesn't have the judgment necessary to bring prices down, keep us safe, or otherwise improve our lives.

Bruce Blakeman in promising to make our lives less healthy, less safe, and less affordable. The long-term impact of going back to fracking & cutting green energy measures would cost WAY more money and lives than the high costs of energy we're seeing today. Blakeman is a Trumpist fraud. VOTE HOCHUL!
